An apparently unhoused man is in police custody after an hours-long standoff sparked by the guy boldly taking over a woman’s home while armed with a sword.
The scary intrusion went down Monday in Venice, CA, where resident Marcia Davalos told KCAL9 she arrived home to find the man already chilling inside, and claiming it was really his. Aside from trashing her place, he slammed the door in her face and locked her out.
What’s more, the man reportedly had a knife and a massive sword … which resulted in a huge LAPD response, swarming the block with the SWAT team and even sending in a robot to check out the situation.
After a 4-hour-long standoff, police used tear gas to force the man out of the home … and, bizarrely, he emerged wrapped in a bath towel!
The guy had made himself so at home, he was taking a shower when cops decided his time was up.
Neighbors weren’t nearly as shocked by the incident as you’d think — they told reporters on the scene stuff like this happens all too often. Venice is one of the most impacted communities amid L.A.’s unhoused crisis.
